As a business owner, Sajina Shemze, owner of The Chef House, is a happy camper. This cloud kitchen, offers a variety of wonderful cakes, unique starters, and dishes from the Malabar cuisine. The Chef House gained popularity after she introduced the Pull Me Up Biscoff cakes in Chennai. The cake recipe is an original put together by Sajina after she realised the craze for the flavour, biscoff.

She boasts of an impressive clientele with celebrities like Kiki Vijay, Shalini Ajith, Harris Jayaraj, Director Shankar, Aishwarya Rajesh, cricketer Murali Vijay, and several others. Her best-seller Kunafa Prawns, which is an original curation, is unique. She has made a dessert into a starter.

So how did ‘The Chef House’ happen? “I only cooked for my family. During the lockdown, I started blogging whatever I cooked at home on my social media handle. People liked the content and through the page, I’d sometimes get orders. Occasionally, I’d take up cake orders from my friends. This slowly led me to take orders full-time and work on running my business full-fledged.”
